Asda Peppermint Tea Bags

Advantages: very moreish, no headaches, easy to make
Disadvantages: not many bags in a box

...to getting a box of Asda peppermint tea bags which come in boxes of 20 for roughly 80pence. After being accustomed to getting in the region of 100s in a box at a time, this did not seem a lot to me but I tried it anyway. The box is green and 'nice' looking, and inside the teabags are square and laid in a nice way. There wasnt much loose tea in the box which was nice as sometimes they are very dusty with the granules. After tearing one and putting ...
...this, I found that although the tea infused into the water well, the taste was extremelt strong of mint, but without any body to it, and quite distasteful. However, I then put a bit of milk into it, and it became like a white mint chocolate drink. If you remember the creme chocolate bars, the fondant in that is what this tastes like which was very nice. It doesnt taste, to me, of tea however but it isnt horrible, with milk. I would leave the teabag ... Read review

...tea. On a trip to Asda a couple of months ago I noticed that they did own brand of peppermint tea bags for a reasonable price for a box of 20 so in my trolley they went.

I love herbal and fruit teas it has to be said so i decided to try these peppermint ones out. Believing that they would be very refreshing and having been told that they would ease heartburn ( i have heartburn quite regularly). I bought a pack and tried them as soon as i got heartburn again ( which incidentally was only a couple of days after buying them. I put one in a cup and boiled the kettle then poured hot water in to about 3/4 full then added ...
...enough to drink without scalding my mouth. I didn`t bother putting any sugar in because you don`t have to with other herbal teas, they are normally sweet enough. I settled down in front of the TV and started to sip from the cup, it was disgusting i could not take another drop but i knew i had to get rid of the heartburn and there was no rennie in the house that i could take. Leaving it for a few more minutes to cool it down a bit more I held my ... Read review

It is made with peppermint leaves and does leave you with a refreshing minty flavour just as it says on the box. The box tells you how to prepare the tea if you would like a medium strength cup of tea or a stronger brew. It ...
...I really liked the ASDA peppermint tea bags. I put a level teaspoon of raw sugar for just that extra bit of sweetness and it reminds me of a peppermint stick. I have always liked peppermint sticks and I guess that is part of the reason I decided to try the tea bags. I have noticed that it does help with stomach problems as I tend to have upset stomach over different foods that I eat. I haven't had any major colds or allergies lately but then I'm ... Read review
